PerApp with Aero ?

May 6, 2009 5:52:27 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

I have one strange case that WB (using Aero Midnight) gives me problems with a special app we use at the company. Out of different reasons I still won't let the app use classic but the original Aero of Vista. Is that even possible ?

No.  If an application is excluded it will use the only native look the OS has which is Windows Classic.

Oh, that's too bad. The app gives me errors when trying to resize windows in itself when I use WB with it. Also I have a problem with TeamViewer having a totally trasnparent titlebar.

It is just these 2 apps that are giving me problems lately. Other than that I am using WB since V 1.5 now without bigger problems. I know i can always exclude these 2 apps from skinning, I was just wondering if seting them to Aero would work. Thinking about it, You couldn't set WB to use Luna under XP also.

The reason fo asking at all is : Depending on the skin one is using with Classic You can't read fonts on the titlebar because of the color scheme classic is using then. In this case You have a dark grey font on a dark grey titlebar (using another app for example here).

Maybe I should deal with skinstudio again.

 

 

Note : This is the active window. The app I am using displays valueable information in the titlebars, so I have to see them.

 

And the Teamviewer problem (this happens with and without excluding it) :

Okay, fixed my 1st problem by tweaking the skin, still classic is ugly as hell.

I think You don't get what I am after here. Can You read smileys ? There is no need to cool down, as I am already calm and just giving some hints.
